IPL Skin Rejuvination

IPL (Intensed Pulse Light) Skin Rejuvenation

What is IPL Skin Rejuvenation?

It is no wonder why I.P.L Skin Rejuvenation is one of our most popular treatments at Urban Spa, Bishop’s Stortford. I.P.L (Intense Pulsed Light) Skin Rejuvenation has a multitude of benefits, including the enhancement of the skin’s natural appearance, leaving it looking younger and fresher. It successfully treats skin problems including;

Acne

Rosacea

Sun-damage

Fine lines and wrinkles

Broken capillaries

Age spots

Blemishes

Birthmarks

The IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) system regenerates the skin bystimulating the production of collagen over a period of time. This improves the skin’s elasticity, texture and can aid in reducing wrinkles. The IPL technology generates bursts of red or blue light; light shines on skin and penetrates the tissue. The body’s natural processes then remove the injured tissue leaving the skin looking younger and fresher.

IPL Skin Rejuvenation at our Bishop’s Stortford Spa can also be used to treat various skin conditions including rosacea. It can treat cracked thread veins and broken blood vessels in the face and elsewhere on the body, and it is very effective at removing unwanted hair. See IPL Hair Reduction.

Please Note: Possible Side Effects

As the Intense Pulsed Light is passed over the skin there may be a very slight pinging sensation, like that caused by an elastic band. A patch test is carried out prior to treatment taking place and this will help you understand what IPL treatment feels like.

Side effects are rare but can include slight redness and swelling of the treated area, blistering or bruising and hyper or hypopigmentation. The redness and swelling generally disappears within a few hours of treatment, and the remaining side effects are very rare. Your Urban Spa therapist will carry out a full assessment before any treatment takes place to alleviate any risks.
